broadcast yourself to get the job interview

Broadcast yourself to get the edge over the next guy/gal and get the job interview. You already know jobs are scarce which means you must step up your game to get recognized. Why not broadcast yourself via a short video bio? Chances are pretty good you've either created a YouTube video in the past or know someone that has created a YouTube video. Now, you should transfer your video production skills to the employment scene and help you land a job.

Since many employers are put off by bad interviewers this is your opportunity to showcase your presentation skills, virtually of course, so your potential employer can get a glimpse of your overall presentation. What should you focus on during your video bio?

  1. Presentation - it's everything - look the part.
  2. Skills - short synopsis of two or three of your strongest skills -- relative to the job.
  3. Personable - let your personality shine.
  4. Trinkets - awards, trophies and article write ups - show them off - literally!

 

Now that you know what four areas to focus on from above, you're going to make a home run bio that employers simply can't resist. What employer could resist? You look good, can articulate your skills, have personality for days and to top top it off you have trinkets to validate your accomplishments. So as you can see (pun intended) broadcast yourself to get the job interview and more importantly - get the job. The next guy/gal will be whining and crying all over the web because you shined to get the job, while they're still looking. Don't you just love the whiners? Foot in mouth
